Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Learn SwiftUI at none against Sedona's shown. Learn SwiftUI also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly) and ratings volume (214 vs 36). Sedona's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 42%). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sedona sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Learn SwiftUI sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 3.9 for Sedona against 4.0 for Learn SwiftUI. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Learn SwiftUI has 214 ratings behind it against 36, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 67% of Sedona's written reviews are positive against 42% of Learn SwiftUI's.
Sedona ships an update monthly, Learn SwiftUI every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 13, 2026 and October 7, 2026 respectively.
